Adfluvial: A migratory life history, where the fish makes use of a lake for growth then migrates to a stream to spawn.
Alevin: A life stage of salmonid, where the fish has yet to fully absorb its yolk sac.
Anadromous: A migratory life history in which the fish migrate to the marine environment, then return to freshwater to spawn.
Agonistic Behavior: Aggressive or threatening behavior typically directed at another fish, often used to settle territorial disputes
Anthropogenic: Human caused issues
Benthic: An organism that lives at or near the bottom of a water body
Caudal Fin: The tail fin of a fish
Caudal Peduncle: The narrow part of a fish just in front of the tail fin
ESA: Endangered Species Act
ESU: Evolutionary Significant Unit
Eutrophic: A very nutrient rich body of water. This term typically applies to lakes and is often associated with problematic algae blooms and oxygen depletion in the bottom waters
Fluvial: A migratory population that makes use of a river for growth, then migrates to a smaller stream to spawn
Fry: An early life stage of a fish soon after emerging from the gravel
Grilse: An Atlatnic salmon that returns after a single year at sea.
Guanine: A compound in the skin of salmonids that results in the silvery coloration common to the marine and lacustrine portions of the lifecycle of certain salmonids.
Hybrid: An offspring of two different species or subspecies of fish Kype: The hook like jaw developed by some sexually mature male salmonids
Iteroparous: A fish with the ability to spawn multiple times
Lacustrine: Lake dwelling
Lateral Line: A sensory system running along the side of a fish, is typically used to detect movement and objects in the water
Natal: Birth place
NOAA: National Oceanographic and Atmosphere Administration
Parr: A life stage in a sea-run salmonid prior to smolting and migrating to the marine environment
Semelparous: A fish that dies after a single spawning event
Smolt: A juvenile sea-run salmonid that has begun its migration downstream and to the sea. This stage is characterized by a lose of parr marks and transition to a more silvery coloration.
Redd: The nest or place were some salmonids lay their eggs.
